Starbucks has half-price drinks between 3-5 p.m. and a new Chocolate Cookie Crumble flavor.
When it's warm out, there's nothing better than strolling around with a frothy beverage. And with the temperature hitting the 80-degree mark today, Starbucks is launching its annual Happy Hour on Friday, where Frappuccinos are half-price between 3-5 p.m. through May 13. That means you can get one of the blended beverages for as little as $2. Starbucks is also offering a new flavor: Chocolate Cookie Crumble. It's a blended concoction of mocha sauce, vanilla syrup, chocolate chips, milk and ice, topped with chocolate whipped cream (!?!) and chocolate cookie crumbles. And of course there's also Caramel, Mocha, Java Chip, and for those who don't love coffee, Vanilla Bean, Green Tea and Strawberries & Creme. There are three Starbucks locations …

Earlier this week, I heard some chatter about a coffee shop going in at the Oak Creek Woodman's, 8131 S. Howell Ave. So I reached out to Woodman's on Twitter -- the only way a true investigative journalist handles such rumors -- and they responded that "it's still a possibility, no finalized plans yet though."
